Leopards won’t eat their faces. Or if it seems like they will, they’ll just do what he wants. They may have tried to maintain appearances of doing law, just conservatively, during his presidency, but since then they’ve abandoned it and are just a kangaroo court. You don’t declare the president a king and precedent optional while still maintaining some pretense of justice. They think they’ve won and now is the time to put their plans into motion.
